Switchboard Upgrades & Safety Switches around Mount Pleasant
Mount Pleasant is a mix of established homes and newer builds, so the work varies from bringing older wiring up to standard to adding the extras a builder left out of a newer home.
If your home is older, the switchboard may still have ceramic fuses or too few safety switches. If it's newer, an upgrade is usually about room for new circuits like an EV charger or air-con.
Homes near the escarpment and bush get their share of storms and fallen branches. If power drops out after a storm, it's worth getting the switchboard and any damaged outdoor wiring checked before resetting things repeatedly.

Why safety switches matter
A safety switch cuts power in a fraction of a second if current leaks to earth, for example through a person. Older homes often have none, or only one protecting the power points. We'll check what you have and recommend what's needed.
